Profile & Story

Chartreuse liqueurs have been produced by the Carthusian monks since the 17th century, based on a secret 130-plant recipe. This cuvee, first created in 2008, is a special Chartreuse Jaune blend developed by the Chartreux Fathers in close collaboration with the Meilleurs Ouvriers de France Sommeliers - an elite group of top French sommeliers - who worked with the monks to select traditional Yellow Chartreuse liqueurs and achieve a different aromatic balance emphasizing freshness and liveliness. It is bottled at 45% ABV from alcohol, sugar, water and vegetable substances (130 plants, bark, roots, spices and flowers).

Tasting Notes

An intense yellow color with fluorescent green highlights; a complex, captivating nose of spices, licorice, fennel and hyssop intertwined with citrus, anise, saffron and lemon balm. Best served chilled between 12-13C, and can also be enjoyed on ice.
